Set out one or two sheets of waxed paper. Fill a skillet with 1 inch of very hot water. Place the saucepan into the skillet so cookie dough stays warm. Allrecipes/Victoria Jempty

Quickly drop a heaping tablespoonful of cookie dough onto the waxed paper, and use lightly greased fingers to form it into a wreath shape. Immediately decorate cookie with red hot candies. Repeat to shape and decorate remaining cookies. Allrecipes/Victoria Jempty Allrecipes/Victoria Jempty Allrecipes/Victoria Jempty
